Brad Butler brings Freedom First’s private banking to Lynchburg
ROANOKE, VA (March 13, 2023) — Freedom First Credit Union is excited to welcome Brad Butler as VP of Private Banking for the Lynchburg market.
Brad is joining Freedom First’s Private Banking team, which provides concierge-level service and personalized products to financially savvy members looking to grow their wealth for the future.
Brad has resided in the Lynchburg and Forest communities for almost 40 years now, conveying well over 3 decades of relational and business experience to the Freedom First team from his work at Facility Partners, Wiley|Wilson, The American Red Cross, Williams Lighting, and Liberty University.
“Private Banking is a service that you really miss when you know you don’t have it,” Brad said. “I think there’s something incredibly valuable about being able to pick up your phone and call someone you personally know and trust, whenever you have a banking need. Brad continued, “knowing also, that your money is staying right here within our community is a very compelling factor with those who bank with Freedom First Credit Union.”
“It was a great pleasure to bring Brad onto the ever-growing Lynchburg team,” said Brent Jenkins, Freedom First’s Market Executive for the Lynchburg Market. “Brad’s background and prowess were immediately evident and I look forward to Brad expanding Freedom First’s highly successful Private Banking program into the Lynchburg market.”
